Tile Repair in Cumbria

Tile repair at your home in Cumbria

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on marble, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

What you will pay

Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a price

If you are in Cumbria and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Local landmarks in Carlisle

Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Our Lady and St Joseph's Church, Trinity School and Milbourne Arms Public House and the streets around them. Nearby too are Church of St Cuthbert with St Mary (within half a mile north) and Robert Ferguson Primary School (under half a mile south). There’s a railway station in Carlisle itself: Carlisle station. Well-known places in the area include County Borough of Carlisle (within half a mile north) and Carlisle Castle (0.6 miles north). Not far away are Thurstonfield Lough.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

• The type of damage
• Access to the area
• The material
• How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cumbria. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

• The material, if you know it
• A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
• A close-up of the damage, in focus
• Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
